I know alot about the NSX, but did not know it was one of the first cars with drive by wire. The NSX is so great and pure in stock form, one has to be very wise with aftermarket parts, many aftermarket tuners simply ruin the car. So if I got a NSX and had to keep it stock, I would be ok with that. Long live the NSX!

I thought the early NSXs were all manual steering, no power steering what so ever?

The MR2 had a EHPS system that was rare at the time, and it too ate tires, I think all mid engine cars eat tires, but I still can't find a car that handles like a mid engine.

Great article! I had no idea Gordon went to Honda for an engine. I only knew that they put a BMW engine in the McLaren F1. Not sure how I managed to miss the original post.
